12. Cell Membrane Polar heads are hydrophilic “water loving ” Nonpolar tails are hydrophobic “water fearing” Makes membrane “Selective” in what crosses copyright cmassengale

13. copyright cmassengale

14. Cell Membrane Hydrophobic molecules pass easily ; hydrophilic DO NOT The cell membrane is made of 2 layers of phospholipid s called the lipid bilayer copyright cmassengale

16. Semipermeable Membrane Small molecules and larger hydrophobic molecules move through easily. e.g. O 2 , CO 2 , H 2 O copyright cmassengale

17. Ions , hydrophilic molecules larger than water, and large molecules such as proteins do not move through the membrane on their own. Semipermeable Membrane copyright cmassengale

18. Types of Transport Across Cell Membranes copyright cmassengale

21. Diffusion of Liquids copyright cmassengale

22. Diffusion through a Membrane Cell membrane Solute moves DOWN concentration gradient (HIGH to LOW) copyright cmassengale

24. Diffusion of H 2 O Across A Membrane High H 2 O potential Low solute concentration Low H 2 O potential High solute concentration copyright cmassengale

26. Cell in Isotonic Solution CELL 10% NaCL 90% H 2 O 10% NaCL 90% H 2 O What is the direction of water movement? The cell is at _______________. equilibrium ENVIRONMENT NO NET MOVEMENT copyright cmassengale

27. Cell in Hypotonic Solution CELL 10% NaCL 90% H 2 O 20% NaCL 80% H 2 O What is the direction of water movement? copyright cmassengale

28. Cell in Hypertonic Solution CELL 15% NaCL 85% H 2 O 5% NaCL 95% H 2 O What is the direction of water movement? ENVIRONMENT copyright cmassengale

35. Three Forms of Transport Across the Membrane copyright cmassengale

38. Proteins Are Critical to Membrane Function copyright cmassengale

40. Facilitated Diffusion Molecules will randomly move through the pores in Channel Proteins . copyright cmassengale

45. Sodium-Potassium Pump 3 Na+ pumped in for every 2 K+ pumped out; creates a membrane potential copyright cmassengale

46. Moving the “Big Stuff” Molecules are moved out of the cell by vesicles that fuse with the plasma membrane. Exocytosis - moving things out. This is how many hormones are secreted and how nerve cells communicate with one another . copyright cmassengale

47. Exocytosis copyright cmassengale Exocytic vesicle immediately after fusion with plasma membrane.

48. Moving the “Big Stuff” Large molecules move materials into the cell by one of three forms of endocytosis . copyright cmassengale

49. Pinocytosis Most common form of endocytosis . Takes in dissolved molecules as a vesicle . copyright cmassengale

51. Example of Pinocytosis pinocytic vesicles forming mature transport vesicle Transport across a capillary cell (blue). copyright cmassengale

52. Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis Some integral proteins have receptors on their surface to recognize & take in hormones, cholesterol , etc. copyright cmassengale

53. Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis copyright cmassengale

55. Endocytosis – Phagocytosis Used to engulf large particles such as food, bacteria , etc. into vesicles Called “Cell Eating” copyright cmassengale

56. copyright cmassengale

57. Phagocytosis About to Occur copyright cmassengale

58. Phagocytosis - Capture of a Yeast Cell (yellow) by Membrane Extensions of an Immune System Cell (blue) copyright cmassengale

59. Exocytosis The opposite of endocytosis is exocytosis. Large molecules that are manufactured in the cell are released through the cell membrane . Inside Cell Cell environment copyright cmassengale
